Wright Gives Aeroplane
Patents Free to British
London, Oct. 12.—Orville Wright
has made a notable gift of patent
rights to the British nation.
A fourteen years' monopoly expires
next March, and with the consent of
Wright the company will not apply
for an extension. "So every manufac
turer in England will be free to man
ufacture without the payment of any
royalty." Prior to the war steps were
taken to obtain English recognition
of the work done by the Wright broth
ers, and a claim for $125,000 against
the war office for infringement of
patent was later settled by $76,000 be
ing accepted for past, present and fu
ture use of the patent on all govern
ment machines. This left the company
with patent rights for sporting use
and for manufacture for export to
foreign countries, but the recognition
having been secured no application
has been made to any manufacturer
for royalty, leaving the Industry un
disturbed.
THIRTEENTH WAR
CREDIT VOTED
(Continued From Page 1.)
term war loan as at present the coun
try's needs are being met by revenue
from taxes and by short-dated issues.
Premier Asquith moved a vote of
credit of £300,000,000, bringing up the
total for the current fiscal year to
£1,350,000,000.
Parliament, said the premier, had
been asked to vote for war purposes
what was equivalent to the aggregate
expenditure for twenty years before
the war, although that period includ
ed the South African war. When he
moved the last vote of credit in July
he estimated the average rate of ex
penditure at approximately £5,000,
000 daily. That forecast had proved
almost exactly correct. At the com
mencement of the present war, the
premier continued, there was still In
hand £100,600,000, which would cur
ry on until October 27. "He gave the
aggregate expenditure on 113 days of
the financial year as: Army, navy
and munitions, £879,000,000 loans to
allies and dominions, £157,000,000
food supplies, railways, etc., £83,000,
fl&O. The daily average- of- expen
ditures had risen slightly, he said,
and was £5,070,000 for the last 77
days of the financial year. Expen-,
ditures for the army had fallen slight
ly, while those for munitions had in
creased somewhat. Loans to Great
Britain's allies and dominions were
exceeding the budget estimate at the
present rate. They would not be safe
in assuming that expenditures in the
future would be less than £5,000,000
daily.
Reverting to the possibility of loans
to allies and dominions exceeding
the budget estimate of £460,000,000,
Mr. Asquith said no part of the war
expenditure was more important than
this. Great Britain had no selfish In
terest In this matter, and, although
the expenditure was growing beyond
the estimate, he did not regret it.

BAD BREATH
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets Get at
the Cause and Remove It
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets, the sub
stitute for calomel, act gently on the
bowels and positively do the work.
People afflicted with bad breath find
quick relief through Dr. Edwards*
Olive Tablets. The pleasant, sugar
coated tablets are taken for bad breath
by all who know them.
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets act gen
tly but firmly on the bowels and liver,
stimulating them" to natural action,
clearing the blood and gently purifying
the entire system. They do. that which
dangerous calomel does without any of
the bad after effects.
All the benefits of nasty, sickening,
griping cathartics are derived from Dr.
Edwards' Olive Tablets without grip
ing, pain or any disagreeable effects.
Dr. F. M. Edwards discovered the
formula after seventeen years of prac
tice among patients afflicted with bowel
and liver complaint with the attendant
bad breath.
Dr. Edwards* Olive Tablets are pure

TAKING JUMP
Greeted with enthusiastic support
from every side, the committees rep
resenting the Northern Packing com
pany, in charge of the stock selling
campaign which opened Tuesday, re
port unusually large sales. The re
port of each committee which has!
been placed in the field, was heard at
the luncheon held this noon in the
Commercial club rooms.
Owing to the fact- thAt much ex
planation is necessary, the membera
of the committees in charge of the
sales will be unable to call upon ev
ery Individual who has been placed
on the list as prospective purchasers,
and efforts will now be made to have
all who are interested, investigate the
proposition and If they believe It a
paying investment, to take as much
stock as they can afford.
By calling at the office of the Com-«
mercial club secretary, full details
may be learned in this manner, much
of the delay will be done away with.
H. R. Elliott of Duluth, general
manager of the packing company, is
now in Chicago where he is conferring
with architects relative to the con
struction of the proposed plant.
Adriatic Has a
Passenger List of 250
(Continued from Page 1)
Agents for various steamship lines
said that eight or more liners would
follow the Adriatic in the next two
days flying the flagrf of the entente
allies, although they are supposed to
be awaiting the advices of agents of
these governments as to whether »t
is now safe to leave this port for
Europe in view of the uncertainty of
the whereabouts of the IT-53 raider.
The Atlantic transport line steamer
Minnehaha is loading 1,000 tons of
cargo said to be war munitions and
will sail soon.
Naval Experts Perplexed.
Naval experts are perplexed over
the absolute silence surrounding the
U-53 since her foray off Nantucket.
Many -offleers now believe-she. was
sent over on an experiment raid to
try out her cruising capacities, to test
her powers of destruction here and
to develop the attitude of the United
States in a diplomatic sense. Having
accomplished all these objects, they
believe she now is well on. her way
home again to report and replenish.
Another theory is that possibly she
has fallen victim to one of the many
armed lined liners that would have
crossed her path off Nantucket. The
allies usually do not make public the
destruction of submarines in this way.
The theory that the submarine has
gone south to a base in the West
Indies or the Caribbean is not gener
ally held here. It is regarded as ex
tremely doubtful, however, that she
still is off Nantucket, for despite the
fact that many ships have been di
verted to unaccustomed courses it
thought she would be able to find
prey if she so desired.
TT.
s.
Battleship Pats to Sea.
The battleship Nevada left the navy
yard here and passed out to sea head
ing in an easterly direction. A sug
gestion that she was bound for. the
scene of the recent German submarine
activities was met by the statement
at the navy yard that she wag "out
for a little cruising exercise along
the coast."
17. S. Not Likely to Protest.
Washington, Oct. .12.—it is appar
ent in official circles that in case the
actual operations of submarines tn
t)ie western Atlantic be guided by the
principles of international law, their
presence off the coast will not be con
sidered offensive, as was the case with
the allied cruisers which the United
States asked to have withdrawn earlier
in the war.
Officials pointed out today that the
allied vessels were only a few miles
off land while the boat operations
I were at least fifty miles off the near
est land and seventy miles from the
mainland. Neither has there arisen
1 any case of the Germans punning
vessels straight down the coast as did
one of the British cruisers, or operat
ing so close to American territorial
I waters as to require a neutrality pa
trol. It Is realised, however, that
should a practical blockade of Amer
ican ports develop the government
would consider It had grounds for
action.
Considerable Interest centers on the
continued silence of the allied em
bassies. Again today It was stated
positively at the state department that
no representations of any sort had
been received from the allies as a
result of the U-53*s visit to Newport
or her depredations off the American
coast.
